Importing PSX Save Files (aka memory card images)
-
On sites like GameFAQs you can find many save files for PlayStation games, these are either disk images of peoples' memory cards or hacked memory cards with a save file that gets you to a certain point in the game or gives you a character with many levels/gold/items, however the game works.
All the different PlayStation emulators (ePSXe, PCSX, Bleem, PSEmu, etc) and memory card dumper hardware (DexDrive, MadCatz Data Deck) use a different memory card save format, so you often can't just copy these downloaded save files right onto the Pi.
This new section on the wiki demonstrates how to convert from the downloaded memory card format to a format which is compatible with RetroPie's PCSX-based emulator, so you can load the memory card onto the Pi and use the downloaded save:

Happy importing!
